Five Rules to Healthy Skin

Five Rules to Healthy Skin

These 5 simple rules form the foundation of every good skincare regime:

Be careful in the sun

Sun damage is the single greatest cause of ageing causing freckles, sun spots,pigmentation, wrinkles and at worst leading to skin
cancer. This doesn't mean you can't have fun in the sun - looking bronzed is a great way to look healthy, but always wear sun
protection of at least SPF 15 and avoid excessive periods of sun exposure - using sunless tanners is a great way to top up that sun
kissed look.

Exfoliate regularly

Sad but true, cell turnover starts to slow down after we reach 30, which can leave skin dull, so it's key to exfoliate regularly.
Get regular skin peels, microdermabrasionand facials to maintain vibrant, glowing smooth skin.

Use vitamin based skincare and mineral make-up

The quality of what you put on your skin makes a huge difference. To reduce the signs of ageing use a Retinol (Vitamin A) skincare
system. When used correctly Retinol builds collagen to smooth out wrinkles, and, by sloughing off the top layer of skin, it can help
fade dark spots.

Pure mineral make-up form a filter that allow the skin to breath and function normally, whilst still protecting the skin from UV
light and air born pollutants.

Maintain a healthy diet

Healthy skin starts from the inside out. Provide your skin with vitamins and nutrients from foods rich in Omega-3, Vitamin C, A,
and E which help to increase the production of collagen and elastin needed to keep the skin moist and youthful looking. Avoid excessive
consumption of caffeine and alcohol which dehydrates the skin causing it to become dry and age. In times of stress support your skin
with advanced nutritional supplements.

Don't smoke

Smoking causes the formation of age-inducing free radicals and dehydrates the skin rapidly increasing the formation of wrinkles
and lines as we age.
